Gnocchi Pesto: Dreams do come true

What happens when you take the best type of pasta that exists and combine that with the best pasta sauce there is? The answer my dear friends is to your left. That is the image of a perfect Gnocchi Pesto I ordered in Venice. I understand that Venice is the seafood capital of Italy, but some exceptions must be made. This was ordered as my first meal and boy did it satisfy. Biting into gnocchi feels like pushing down on a pillow with your teeth; nothing short of heavenly. The pesto held up its own as well. It was creamy and bold, but not overpoweringly filled with basil. Overall I couldn't have expected more from it. I would go on to have fish courses later on, but my vice took control of me in this instance and I'm glad it did.
